Lack of Knowledge as a Stressor

I find it very confusing that our school system spends multiple years teaching us how our democratic system works, how to be a good citizen etc. But not a single one on how we will pay for it all over and over again, nothing about how we will be taxed. Nothing about income tax brackets, small business taxation, debt, penalties, capital gains, etc.

Interestingly, I hear people in staff rooms talk about what they would do if they won the lottery. What they would do if they were free of money concerns and limitations.

These two observations mean that money is the mechanism of control.

Don’t be fooled. Educate yourself about what is happening to you. Plan your life to be as free of debt, and drudgery as possible. Create an existence where at least, the shackles are loose. Then fight for the one where they don’t exist by sharing awareness with others.

Shift Deals

I think what I like most about Shift is how personable and understanding the psychologists are. You are a person, not just a diagnosis to be solved. They help you and your support network understand what and why your brain is doing whatever it is and create a safe place to build you back up. They are warm and caring. They don't get annoyed if you miss or need to reschedule an appointent and having the ability to have call in sessions is great for hectic days. The receptionists are so cool and efficient. If I need to reschedule, I'll usually get a confirmation email before I've hung up. I'm incredibly grateful for Shift and their up to date, normalizing take on psychology.read more

Very fun, youthful and inviting place. I did ask about sliding scale though a couple of times and it was never arranged. Still a very helpful experience though overall! Liked that they offered evening sessions.read more

I have engaged various modalities over the years to deal with my limiting beliefs and beliefs that do not serve me. The work I did with Andrea at Shift was impactful and most importantly: it stuck for the long term.read more

I’ve been to psychologists before but I never really felt like I got anywhere or like there was point. I started seeing Olga in early February and have been fully committed to continuing my sessions with her since. The way each session progresses you know and can see that she devises a plan. I now see the value in seeing a psychologist and am so excited to continue on this journey ! Thank you.read more
